Swedish wolves pit environmentalists against hunters
06/09/11 11:44 PM

How many wild wolves should Sweden have? The question is a hot political topic and stirs up many emotions, pitting animal rights activists and conservationists against hunters and cattle farmers.

The Swedish government has agreed to stop plans for another licensed hunt this year after criticism from the European Commission. But according to new estimates, there needs to be at least 400 wolves in the country, far more than the government's goal of 210 animals.

But the findings are disputed by conservationists and hunters alike both arguing that the number is incorrect, Swedish Radio News reports.
